Title: Eaves in Nova Scotia, and Palmerston Ontario
Post by: barb_rn on Sunday 01 October 17 22:01 BST (UK)
Looking for any help, I have a Jeremiah Eaves (1844-1926) born in Nova Scotia (family originally from Ireland according to one Canadian Census), then moved to the Palmerston Ontario area, married Margaret Ann Hannah (?Hanna) (1856-unknown).
He passed away at the House of Industry between Elora/Fergus in June 1926.  I'm looking for any information on parents or anyone before him.
Thanks in Advance!

What information do you have already ?

Have you investigated the Eaves family on the 1851 census Wellington County Canada West. ?

There was a marriage for Jeremiah Eaves 4 May 1885 Wellington Ontario - father Mark Eaves and Mother Elizabeth - spouse Margaret Howard.   Jeremiah would fit with the family on that 1851 census.

Parents are listed as Mark and Elizabeth.
Families appear under Eaves and Eves.

I didn't have Jeremiah's parents names, I have the info from the 1891 Census, but I'll look back further on the 1851 census. Thank you for giving me something else to go look into! greatly appreciated :)

I just noticed on that link that Margaret's last name was Howard, however, I had it listed as Hannah which that marriage registration form indicates she was a widow... so I'm guessing Howard was her married name *does happy dance*
